When Daevin Hobbs turned away from basketball and focused only on football, everything feel in place for him to become one of the most heavily recruited high school players in the country. “My sophomore year, I started to take football more seriously,” Hobbs said. “I bought in, and it led to where I’m at today.” Hobbs’ sister, Ella, is one of the most heavily recruited women’s basketball prospects in the country. The siblings competed against each other and that made them both better. “Not everyone has this,” Daevin Hobbs said. “We pushed each other every day when we were little to get to this point. It’s what we dreamed of. I’m glad it worked out.”
